Notes

Result:
You can mix Plant Mate Plant Meat with meat in many different meals.
Always remember to add more liquid in the ratio 1:2,5, where the Plant Mate product is 1 and the liquid is 2,5.
Feel free to add more spices as Plant Mate products by itself have a neutral flavour.
By using Plant Mate, you get almost the same taste experience as with meat, and at the same time you can be happy with the fact that you have halved your meat consumption, saved CO2, and saved money!
 
Proteins:
As a dry product, the Plant Mate products contain 53% protein. When the products are soaked in liquid (about 1:2,5), the protein content will be about 18g protein per 100g, which is the same as the protein content of meat.
Thus, it is possible to replace part of the meat with Plant Mate products without reducing the amount of proteins.
